Specifically, the aim of this report is to describe and reflect on the process of exchanging knowledge within different communities to make the project outcomes

This is a guide for facilitators and funders of research-policy exchange programmes. It translates the lessons learned from the 2020 Energy-SHIFTS Policy Fellowships to five principal questions, which aim to support the next iteration of research-policy interactions for societal change. Read it!
